Operating Systems AIX how to pre-determine if a reboot is required? Post 75209 by bakunin on Thursday 16th of June 2005 06:00:00 AM

Copy your fixes to a directory, then make this your current directory and issue an "inutoc .". A file called ".toc" will be created. For every package there is a multiline entry created, in the first line of this entry there is a single "b" or "B" if a bosboot is required.

You might want to search comp.unix.aix for "installp reboot" for this issue explained and check the AIX 5.2 (5.1) documentation for "installp" (rather lengthy) for the details of this.

You can try this by copying only one fix which you know to (not) require a reboot to a firectory and compare the various .toc-files generated by "inutoc".

Hope this helps.
